HPV Immunisations

The HPV (human papilloma virus) vaccination is now available free for 9 – 26 year old males and females. HPV is a common virus that is spread through intimate contact and can cause cell changes in the body that can lead to cancer in later life.

The vaccine protects against cervical cancer and also offers some protection against throat, mouth and other cancers.

This vaccine will be offered to students as part of a school based program and we will directly contact those who fall outside of this programme.
